Now advanced robotics meets gaming and real-world action meets virtual missions. Take charge and pilot your MekaMon with your iOS device against waves of AR enemies, duel other players with Mek-to-Mek Multiplayer battle, pilot your MekaMon in the Dropzone sandbox mode and learn to code with Apple's Swift Playgrounds.

Make it your own

You can fully customize MekaMon—level up in game to unlock new abilities and traits, then swap in new armor, weapons, and accessories to tailor your MekaMon's appearance and tactics to suit your battle strategy.

Jump into the action

Battle in MekaMon is fast paced, strategic, and unforgiving. This world is easy to learn, difficult to master. Using a selection of offensive, defensive, and utility AUGs, attempt to outplay your opponent in a real-time showdown of strategic wit and piloting skill. Build out your own AUG deck with abilities that synergize with your playstyle and hone your skills as a MekaMon pilot.

The Mekamon robot is great for learning Swift programming. There is a free MekAcademy Playground for the Swift Playgrounds app that teaches basic Swift syntax and offers access to some of the motions that the Mekamon can perform. It has 50 or 60 basic movements, many of which are combinations of individual movements, that are hard to believe could be performed at all. In the Playground there are structured exercises that you write in Swift (with lots of hints when you mis-type).
Reach Robotics promises to offer even more motions in future versions of the MekAcademy.
The Augmented Reality feature is super fun. All it requires is the mat on your floor to orient the robot. Then you can either watch your iPhone or iPad screen to see your Mek and the augmented enemies coming at you. Lots of weapons to choose from. You can also send the video to your AppleTV.
Unless you look at the videos on YouTube or play with one in the store, you won't really understand how much fun this is.
By the way, these are ONLY sold in Apple Stores!
